United States Has Great Britain claimed
and received from Russia any such concession
Of rights In the Russian section OF that sea as
ia now claimed in the American parti These
pointed questions cover what is essential in
this controversy. In 1924 the United States
agreed to Russia's exclusive claim and Great
Britain also acquicscod in it year afterward.
The claim went with Alaska Mt the time OF
the purchase and still holds. Great Britain
has never acquired the samo rights. If there
wero protests before 1924 the negotiations
then settled the question. If otherwise, why
does the United States Government stand on
the Treaty of 1918 in Canadian waters why
does it not GO back to the earlier convention

THE BUFFALO BILL-BISMARCK INCIDENT


rhe fact that Count Herbert Bismarck was lately
e,a, ated 10 the back scat on drag of an English
nobleman for the reason that the front seat had
been assigned to Buffalo Bill, may lead TO war
bc,yeen Germany and England. But it is to be
hound that hostilitics nay be ayerted. Count
Hismarcl's father is as sensible as he Is stern,
man of brains and gumption as wel as OF blood ana
IRON so IL is only fair to assume that IL VIII occur
TO him that mere Count, even though he answers
TO the name OF Bismarck and Is the son OF his
father, may well be backward in coming forward
TO the front seat when Buffalo Bll is around.
Counts are comparatively common. There Is but
one Buffalo Bill. Counts read thoir title clear,
nc least Count Herbert Bismarck can to illusrious
ranlS But the sovereignty which Buffalo BIZ
carries undor his hat a citizen OF this Republic
is something OF greater hynifcance. Herbert has
not whipped his weight In gray wild cats nor in
rod Indians. Buffalo Bib has Herbert cannot
ride like centaur, shoot like Diana, play poker
like n Kentucky Judge, wrcstle like gladiator.
throw the lasso like cowboy. and beat Tom
OchiltIee telling stories Buffalo Bill can palmam
ou mer,lit fc ut-let Buffalo Bill have the box seat
II is in view OF these considerations that her
sister nations will venture TO trust that Prince
Bismarck will not insist upon mopping the floor of
huroIe with ENGLAND because Buffalo Bill out
ford. William is modest man and would be
much panied at tho thought Of being made an
international issue. The Prince must not forget
that we are living in an age when philosophd
from Erin acutely observed, zone man is as good
as another ard often good dc0l better 1t IS
getting to be more and more the fashion every day
to invite achievement TO the box and let blood,
however blue 20 to the rear. Since Clara We're
de Vero received that terrible rebu<e at the hands
Of a yeoman per 1ennyson, she has not been riding
us far to the front on dra2s she used to ride.
The yeoman plumply told her that the gardener
Adam and his wife smiled at hor contention that
the box seat ought to be given her because she
bs onged to one Of the fist families.
Stn il is well to be prepared for the worse.
For as our London correspondent reminds his
readers, in commenting on the incident IN question,
"thqe is no human being sitter than your Prussian
on points of etiquette none on the whole 50 stii.
so Bismarck may conclude to fight for that scat
which his boy didn't get. But If he Is this level
headed person that think he Is he will com
mend Lord Ber,Gford's conduct and extend to
buffalo Bill cordial invitation to come ovcT
to Germany and touch up that country with the
ravishing vcrmillon pigment with which he has
bo.n decorating London.

Queen Victoria comes last; but on departing
she takes the first place.
